An utterly remarkable man. Still alive after finally retiring in 1974, I'm not sure he still couldn't do it.
IMHO, one of the finest men our nation's produced.

I would read a food label if he wrote it!

Terry Frei is an interesting guy. U of Oregon grad, IIRC, and was a columnist for the Oregonian when I moved out here in 1985. His dad, Jerry Frei had been an Oregon football coach (may have been the guy who coached Fouts and Bobby Moore a.k.a. Ahmad Rasheed).
Loooong family ties back to Wisconsin.
Terry took on the story of the 1942 badgers, and it's exceptional. His dad was part of that team. There's a reason why Elroy Hirsch played for the Badgers and AGAINST the Badgers (playing for Michigan).
The war.
Some real manly men here and a GREAT story.
